Does anyone know what needs to be done in order to get the mail command to
work?
Right now I'm trying to do:
mail -s "test from command line" [EMAIL PROTECTED]
I I have postfix installed.

This is how I did it.
Download the latest drivers (NVidiaNVIDIA_GLX-0.9-769 and
NVIDIA_kernel-0.9-769) and as root do "make" in the kernel and then GLX
directory.
Run and configure X with xf86config. I believe graphic card you want is under
number 320.
Then you'll need to edit your /etc/X11
When I use a cdplayer and start it, the disc spins up, and it even identifies
it correctly from the freedb database, but no sound comes out.
But when I use timidity to pay a midi file, the sound comes out fine.
What's happening? I'm using built in scsi-emulation on /dev/sr0.

When I start X on my Debian sid install, I get this message at the console:

This font is present though at the above path. Any idea why X has trouble
loading it?

I downloaded gdm, and it lets met boot into gnome, but gnome defaults to
window maker. How do I tell gdm to launch gnome with sawfish?
Nice debian-themed background, by the way, that comes up in gnome/window
maker by default.

Why isn't kernel-source-2.4.3 in unstable yet? Just curious. I'm hoping it
will solve some problems with resets under high load that I've seen with
2.4.2.
Is downloading the source from kernel.org going to break anything in my
package database? Should I first uninstall kernel-source-2.4.2? Than
Just to add another data point, I have the same card but I don't see the same
problems as you. I set my resolution to 1280x1024 and my bit depth to 16, if
that makes any difference.

Can someone tell me the name of the package containing a precompiled kernel?
Until now I've been downloading sources and compiling them myself, but have
been experiencing spontaneous resets with my version of kernel 2.4.2, so I'd
like to try one that a package maintainer has compiled.

I see the message in the subject header when doing apt-get upgrade, followed
by a somewhat long list of packages. Can someone tell me what causes this?
After running the upgrade command, I did an "apt-get install" on one of the
packages that was in the list. It upgraded without a problem.

Which package contains dmsg? I don't seem to have it on my computer.

The only thing I can think of is to make the cdrecord command itself part of
your cdburn group.
I usually use "su -" in a shell and from there use cdrecord to burn my cds.

I seem to have heard of some package available for debian that lets you have
a graphically nice boot up sequence. Can anyone tell me what package that is?
Also, which runlevel do I switch to if I want to launch into a login screen
in X? And what file do I need to edit to change the default runle

Can someone tell me (who's new to Debian) what the difference between sid and

Thanks. This solved my problem with my logitech firstmouse+ too.

I don't see any drivers for the kups add printer wizard for my remote printer
(it's an hp2100 with an ethernet connection). All the selections besides
local printer and file are grayed out.
Is there some other package I need to install?

I have a logitech firstmouse+ (imps/2 protocol for both gpm and xfree).
The mouse is erratic in X unless I first kill gpm.
Is this a known problem?

I've just started with debian and have a question about how to start with
source packages, in particular:
nvidia-glx-src 0.9.767-1
nvidia-kernel-src 0.9.767-1
With rpm, I'd do rpm --rebuild somepackage.src.rpm and install the resulting
rpm:
rpm -Uvh /usr/src/RPM/RPM/i686/somepackage.rp
